Halves means cut into 2 equal pieces. If you cut all the apples into halves then you now have 2 pieces of apple where you used to have 1. And if you have 8 apples cut into 2 pieces then that is the same as: 8 (apples) x 2 (pieces of apple) = 16 halves of apple.
Try getting 8 things and cutting them half. Paper works well. Keep the halves or two pieces together. Count all 2 pieces that came from 8 things. There shouldbe 16.
